Context: A picture of several people at work looking tired, and then the question; "do you think it speaks to a lot of people?"
Does it question whether people might see themselves in the picture regarding their own job?

Other context: You're looking at a drawing and say "It speaks to me" . Does that mean that is inspiring, like the opposite of "it leaves me cold"?

La foto es tan real (lively) que pareciera hablarme. It is so vivid/lively the picture that it speasks to me.
